『中国を旅すれば』：（5）中国の法律 中国の法廷弁護士は猛烈にがんばる、目も綾な、やけにたくさんの雄弁な身振りをして、一方、治安判事のほうは、被告側のしぐさに心をかき乱されたり自分の論点を見失ったりしないように、たいがいなにか手仕事に耽ってる。小刀で机に刻み目をつけてる者もいれば、捺印された書類に下手っぴぃな小っちゃい人物画を描いてたり、折り紙でニワトリをこしらえてたりする者もいる。他の人たちはもっといい奥の手を使ってて、目を閉じて深い瞑想へのめり込んでる、こうなると廷吏が「静粛に！」って力いっぱい喚いて、みんなをそこから引きずり出すのにひどく苦労するはめになる・・・てなわけで、中国の正義は目隠しした姿に描かれるんだって <JOURNEY TO CHINA>: (5) CHINESE LAW: Chinese barristers strive so hard, striking so many oratorical poses that the magistrates, in order not to be distracted by the gestures of the defence and to lose nothing of his arguments, generally devote themselves to some manual work, one slices his desk with penknife cuts; the other draws crude little figures on stamped paper or fashions folded paper hens; others have recourse to a more efficient method, they close their eyes and fall into deep meditation from which the usher who shouts silence! with all his might is at great pains to extract them... it is for this reason that Chinese justice is represented with a bandage over its eyes.
